Chapter 1649: 26: Words Unspoken
Chapter 1649: Chapter 26: Words UnspokenThe last thing Jiang Wuqi did before his death was to use himself as bait to sweep away the spies of Equality Country within the borders of Qi Country.
The God Descending Realm Li Youjue, the Truth-Seeking Realm Yan Tu… all were eliminated.
With such wisdom and boldness, what kind of enemy couldn’t he solve?
The hatred of killing his mother, why was he silent, why didn’t he seek revenge?
The grudge of the cold poison entering his life, why didn’t he cleanse it?
And even, why did he let Gongsun Yu leave on New Year’s Eve last year?
And the contradiction lies in…
Jiang Wuqi never mentioned it, Gongsun Yu cut off his tongue to stop speaking.
Yet why did Feng Gu, in the end, force the truth of the past with his death?
Jiang Wang focused intently, he vaguely felt that he was very close to a clue. But it was like looking at flowers through mist, always separated by something.
What is it?
Jiang Wuqi, Feng Gu, Gongsun Yu, Yang Jing…
Gongsun Yu… cut off his tongue!
Unable to speak, is called “mute”.
The door that had been blocked in his mind for a long time suddenly burst open.
Among those chaotic clues, one suddenly became clear and appeared right in front of him.
Jiang Wang turned around and left the house, immediately instructing the housekeeper to prepare a carriage, heading straight to the Long Life Palace.
He wished he could fly over there himself, but being in a place like Linzi at such a delicate time, he had to follow some rules.
His heart was racing like a galloping horse, yet inside the smooth-moving carriage, Jiang Wang’s expression remained calm.
The more urgent the time, the more one must remain calm.
Calm and self-possessed, without losing one’s true heart.
He even abandoned distracting thoughts and began to cultivate.
In the practice of Dao Technique, time always passes leisurely.
Long Life Palace wasn’t far, it didn’t take long to arrive.
Jiang Wang felt he had calmed down, lifted the curtain, and got off the carriage.
Heading straight for the Long Life Palace.
“Sir. According to the rules, someone must accompany you to go inside.” The leading Blue-plate Catcher stopped him.
The Blue-plate Catchers guarding outside the Long Life Palace had already been replaced. Of course, in Linzi, no Blue-plate Catcher would not know Jiang Wang. Even if they hadn’t seen him personally, they should have seen his portrait. Though it was their duty, they were respectful.
“Then you come in with me.” Jiang Wang said directly.
The leading catcher shook his head, “None of us have the qualification to enter the Long Life Palace.”
Jiang Wang, engrossed in the clues, suddenly recalled that, as the crime scene, during the period of lockdown, only he, Lin Youxie, and Zheng Shangming, the three specifically responsible for the case, could enter the Long Life Palace.
They couldn’t enter alone, at least two people had to monitor each other.
Of course, he was fully capable of sneaking into Long Life Palace, and these catchers wouldn’t notice. But in such a tense atmosphere, there was no need to break the rules.
Sometimes the “shortcut” right in front of you is an endlessly winding “long road”.
If he sneaked into the Long Life Palace, no matter what evidence he found, it would not be credible.
“Go invite Zheng Shangming.” Jiang Wang instructed directly, “Tell him I want him to accompany me to gather evidence. If Zheng Shangming is not available, Lin Youxie the vice envoy can do. Anyway, whoever you see first, just invite them. I will wait here.”
With his current stature, there were few within the Green Plate System who didn’t respect him. Not to mention the rumors that he was to take over the position of Beiyar Commander.
Almost as soon as he spoke, a Blue-plate Catcher quickly walked away, heading to Beiyaduwei to invite someone.
Jiang Wang stood at the palace gate, and soon his Spirit sank into the sea, beginning cultivation.
Though time was short, waiting was a waste, cultivation could bring some benefit.
Accumulating small steps to reach a thousand miles, small streams forming rivers and seas, Beyond the Peak is also achieved step by step from the foot of the mountain.
Just as Zheng Shangming hurriedly arrived, Jiang Wang happened to open his eyes.
“What’s the matter?” Zheng Shangming asked.
Jiang Wang simply replied, “Let’s talk inside.”
With two of the three people responsible for the case present, the gates of Long Life Palace opened.
This palace had become even colder, the human presence completely dissipated.
Jiang Wang had a clear target, heading directly towards the wall with the painting of all beings.
“Did you find something new?” Zheng Shangming asked again.
Jiang Wang stood before the wall, closely observing the mural left by Jiang Wuqi, without speaking.
Zheng Shangming then also fell silent.
This mural of all beings had too many characters, the scenes too complex, almost encompassing all of Jiang Wuqi’s observations on “people”.
Anyone who carefully observed it could sense its uniqueness.
But if there was a clue hidden within, it was boundless, impossible to decipher without a “key”.
Jiang Wang kept thinking if he had missed some clues. He had studied this mural repeatedly before, but it wasn’t until he thought of Gongsun Yu’s severed tongue today that he suddenly connected the dots.
In this mural of all beings, aside from those with complete limbs, there’s a blind person speaking incessantly to a deaf person, a deaf person gesturing dramatically to a blind person, a person without a sense of smell fishing by the river…
It can be said to portray all beings.
But the so-called “deaf, blind, sore, mute, four lacks” (yong), Jiang Wuqi’s mural of all beings, included deaf and blind, how could it miss the “mute”?
The answer is actually very simple, the position where the mute should be is Jiang Wuqi’s “mute”, his unspoken words!
And the position where the mute should be is also easy to find, Jiang Wuqi didn’t hide it intentionally deeply.
Divide this mural into nine palaces.
The deaf and blind are in the lower left corner of the painting, located in the Gen Palace.
The sore is in the middle of the right side Dui Palace, a small river runs from the Dui Palace to the Qian Palace, flowing out of the picture, a farmer carrying dung walks along the riverbank, the sore holds a rod fishing.
Based on the positions of the deaf and blind in the entire painting as reference markers, the position of the sore corresponds to the Li Palace’s location, which is the middle of the upper part of this painting.
